How to Make It

Cook the potato in boiling water 15 minutes or until very tender. Drain well; mash potato, and cool.

Step 3

Lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Add mashed potato, cheese, buttermilk, and green onions; stir just until moist.

Step 4

Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead lightly 5 times. Roll dough to a 3/4-inch thickness, and cut with a 3-inch biscuit cutter. Place on a baking sheet. Combine water and egg white, and brush over biscuits. Bake at 425° for 20 minutes or until golden.

I liked these a lot, but my husband couldn't stop raving about them. He said they tasted like pierogis. I used a cup of leftover mashed red potatoes (including skin), and did drop biscuits instead of kneading them. They were really easy and very filling. I will definitely make these again!

Don't personally care for bisquits and rarely make them so not familiar with how they bake etc. Thought they would rise a little more than they did. Was careful to have a preheated oven first so that was not the problem. They were tasty enough but if I make them again, will add a little more punch of flavor. Pretty enough in the bread basket for my family alongside our beef stew and a bottle of wine.
